Summary
A penetrating account of the dynamics of World War II's Grand Alliance through the messages exchanged by the "Big Three"
Stalin exchanged more than 600 messages with Allied leaders Churchill and Roosevelt during the Second World War. In this riveting volume - the fruit of a unique British-Russian scholarly collaboration - the messages are published and also analyzed within their historical context. Ranging from intimate personal greetings to weighty salvos about diplomacy and strategy, this book offers fascinating new revelations of the political machinations and human stories behind the Allied triumvirate.
Edited by two of the world's leading scholars on World War II diplomacy and based on a decade of research in British, American, and newly available Russian archives, this crucial addition to wartime scholarship illuminates an alliance that really worked while exposing its fractious limits and the issues and egos that set the stage for the Cold War that followed.

Excellent
Definitely let you see the war in a new light. But the author insistence that Jalta was not a total sellout of Eastern Europe to USSR is laughable. YES IT WAS and YOU KNOW IT.

Great book...
An amazingly interesting in depth view of these warlords of the 20th century. Being a WW2 nut already, this perspective truly made me see the war in a new light!

A must to read if Modern History to be understood.
A compelling read that allows a feeling of the length and complexity of WW2 for the Allies.
Gave a fresh insight into the 3 Leaders, their priorities and their strengths.
Changes some views on the individuals.......
